I DNF’d her other series “from ash and blood” but really loved the first two books. Giving this series a try. Beginning was slightly boring, not bad, but I really picked up the last 10%. I’m intrigued and enjoying so far.

Juliana Paige Curious to see how you'll feel about this series.. personally, the first two books were good, the third was alright, and last book (which is like 800 pages or something crazy) felt like the biggest waste of time for me. Not to mention by the end of the last book of this series there were things left unresolved (or at least it felt that way) and I think its because it ends up tying in with the last two FBAA books. I adored FBAA and this series years ago when I first started it & used to recommend both series to people.... but now its become more of a dumpsterfire with each book .. im not trying to deter you cause everyone likes different kinds of books but at this point im only finishing FBAA cause im already 10+ books deep and the completionist in me has to see it through. But I havent heard good things about the latest book that came out (and its over or just about 1000 pages)😅 im disappointed with where these series have been going... they're starting to feel like money grabs at this point
